spunky1 said:Xenacrockett, I would like to know which daylily farms are using this stuff for daylily rust. I have been going to most of the big growers for several years and all I have been told is they use the high dollar products that I use. It would be great to spend $20 instead of several hundred every year.


Roycroft was one of the names given I believe. plus at least 1 local farm has used it.
You'd have to get more from Green Magic producer, Lynn Treece.
You need to use what is in your range of comfort, imo.

Since part of my hybridizing is for rust resistance/tolerance I need my hybridizing garden with small amounts of rust.
And I have a fair amount of plants now that just don't show rust.
I have acreage and my sales garden is clear plus plants are treated before shipping. No complaints thus far.

I'm trying to grow plants in similar conditions that the average homeowner/buyer would.
Most wouldn't have access to Cabrio or want to use it. So an option like Green Magic is good.

Although rust is now limited here, this month I plan to cut back and remove foliage
and then spray 4 oz Green Magic per gallon to more or less eliminate remaining rust since I plan
to do heavy (for me) Spring selling.
